I am so glad to have found this website. I have been searching for such a long time to find the right one (true worshippers of God and fully relyant on His direction). I usually have many dreams, in most of my dreams I am an observer - like I'm watching a scene, but on the rare occasion, I am involved in the dream. The dream I need assitance with, I am involved in (very short dream).

Kindly assist:

I dreamt that I was to board a big cruising ship at 11am. (In the dream I felt like I had done this before i.e. was a repeated occurrence.) I was feeling a bit nervous/anxious about this journey. I had apparently taken a nap and when I awoke and looked out the window the ship was just leaving the port. Neither, my husband or kids woke me. When I told them that I missed the ship they seemed to just carry on with the day as per normal. I felt dissappointed, but not like it was the end of the world.

When I literally woke up, the things that stood out most was the time and the ship.

I don't know, but 2 things come to mind and I'm not sure if it could be any of the 2:

1. Our family have been going through a tough financial situation. My husband and I were not in agreement (although we were in agreement all the time up until the pressure became to much) with the next path we should take: My husband wanted us to declare bankruptcy and I felt God was saying that we should stick t. o the plan we were currently on. In the end I agreed but with reluctance and made it clear that I don't believe it's what God was directing us to do.

2. 2wks ago, Sunday,during worship, I felt that I wanted to volunteer to assist with the babies and toddlers, but never did.

Yes I do. With relation to the part of the dream where my family is just carrying on with their day as per normal, that's how I feel in reality, like I don't have their support and that what is important to me doesn't matter or is of no value. So I tend to back away from almost all things that are important to me because of having no support... they verbally say they will, but their words are not put into action... Is it wrong to expect support? Even now, I am fearful of even asking the question.

No, not that kinda support I'm not like that all. When sharing it with them, and their response is "Yeah sure, I'll help". Like hearing me but not listening (in by one ear and out the other). If you know what I mean. I do realise that I am dependant on their support, since if I don't get a true thumbs up from them, then I don't pursue it. I feel I'll fail at either the dream I wish to pursue or my role as a wife and mother, without their support.

So, coming back to the dream, does it mean that I have missed an opportunity to take my stand in doing what I believe is right in both instances? And/or does it mean that there is an opportunity going to present itself and that I could miss it if I don't take my stand?

I don't think it's about two situations. Lord knows we have enough of a challenge figuring what He's talking about with one situation.

Which situation are you nervous and anxious about the same way you were in the dream?? The nervousness and anxiety was about the thing you were going to do not about getting their help, from what I read.I missed the boat............but it's not like it was the end of the world.

MiaI'm a lousy example of a Christian but a PERFECT example of God's Grace.

Could I just throw in something real quick like--may not pertain--but you were boarding the ship (or supposed to) at 11 o'clock and declaring bankruptcy is called chapter 11 isn't it? And just as the opportunity to go on a cruise came and went, the opportunity for you to possess some things has come and almost gone so maybe the anxiety of repossession is there in your dream....Do you think your chance to volunteer has come and gone also?
